Auctions This Week: Wednesday, January 2nd

We have some absolutely fascinating comics for you this week, just the sort of thing to really jump-start your 2019 comic collecting. First up is a gorgeous example of Thor #175, a classic Stan Lee story featuring the potential “Fall of Asgard”, as orchestrated by popular villain Loki.

For the Golden Age fans, look no farther than our solid copy of Comic Cavalcade #3, a 1940s square-bound comic packed with 12 different stories. Included, but not limited to, fan-favorites like Wonder Woman, Flash, and Green Lantern, this issue also marks the beginning of the Hop Harrigan and the Sargon the Sorcerer stories. The slight restoration (a small amount of color touch on the cover) in no way detracts from this historic opportunity to own such a rare item.

A very hard-to-find 1940s Golden Age comic, this giant-sized square bound issue begins the Hop Harrigan and the Sargon the Sorcerer stories, with twelve features in all, starring Green Lantern, Wonder Woman, the Flash, and Mutt and Jeff. Stories are written by Bill Finger, Gardner Fox, William Moulton Marston, and Jon L. Blummer, with art by Harry G. Peter, Sheldon Moldoff, Lou Ferstadt, and Harry Lampert, and a wonderful cover by Frank Harry.

A high-grade Marvel horror/suspense first issue for your collection, this thrilling book features Stan Lee, Denny O’Neil, and Gary Friedrich stories, with artwork by John Buscema, Tom Sutton, and Don Heck, and a great cover by John Romita.

A 1963 vintage comic from an original owner collection, supervillain Eclipso makes his second appearance in a classic story written by Bob Haney and Murray Boltinoff, with art by Mort Meskin, George Roussos, and Lee Elias, and a cover by Meskin and Sheldon Moldoff.
